Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the weighty offenses that commonly plague the legal system. It begins with common law from the feudal era, where an injured party was responsible for apprehending the wrongdoer. The author discusses the evolution of concepts like false pretenses and distinguishes between simple and compound larceny through historical case studies. The book then moves on to modern times and explores how statutes largely replaced the common law, but that concepts like intent and the definition of property largely remain unchanged.

Understanding this progression helps clarify the concepts that determine innocence or guilt in criminal cases.
